My Ex-husband Asked Me to Remarry Him Every Day-Chapter 563 - 555: Then I’ll Just Ask You for a Gift
She really never runs out of tricks.
Fireworks couldn’t be set off here, so after asking Xie Baola what time she needed to be home, Chen Jiayan said he would take her to a place.
The riverbank in Hai City was crowded.
It took about forty minutes to get to the riverbank from his house.
By the time they reached the riverbank, Xie Baola had already fallen asleep in the car.
Seeing her so soundly asleep, he didn’t wake her up.
After playing games on his mobile phone for a long time in the car, Chen Jiayan got out to smoke.
He didn’t know how much time had passed when suddenly, he heard a teeth-gritting voice inside the car.
"What a cold-hearted man... Chen Jiayan!"
He hadn’t done anything wrong, had he?
Chen Jiayan pulled open the car door and poked his head inside.
"Are you talking about me?"
Xie Baola was startled, "Oh, you haven’t left yet?"
She thought Chen Jiayan had just left her there and gone back first.
"If I had left, I wouldn’t have heard you cursing me."
Indeed, one shouldn’t speak ill of others behind their backs.
"How would I know? I thought you just dumped me here and left."
Seeing her wearing only a dress, Chen Jiayan opened the back door, took out her coat, and handed it to her.
Xie Baola took it and put it on, "How long did I sleep?"
"Two hours."
Did she really sleep for that long?
Really?
"Why didn’t you wake me up?"
Chen Jiayan thought about why he had brought her here.
"Do you still want to set off fireworks or should we just go back?"
Was that even a question?
Of course, they had come to set off fireworks before going back.
Chen Jiayan put on a fireworks display for Xie Baola on this New Year’s Eve night.
After all the fireworks had been set off, Xie Baola asked Chen Jiayan for a New Year gift.
Honestly, it had been a very long time since anyone had spent New Year’s with him.
Of course, Chen Jiayan hadn’t prepared a gift.
Xie Baola, with a twinkle in her eye, said, "Then I’ll just ask you directly for a gift."
Chen Jiayan was speechless.
Just when he was clueless, Xie Baola suddenly kissed his cheek.
Her touch reached his heart from his skin.
Chen Jiayan seemed to be moved in that moment.
His ears turned red.
Xie Baola noticed and immediately felt smug.
This man was somewhat stubborn.
Why couldn’t he just admit he liked her?
Xie Baola made it clear to Chen Jiayan that she was determined to win him over.
In response to her intense intentions, Chen Jiayan just smirked with a cigarette in his mouth.
Seeing this, Xie Baola wanted to kiss him again.
His kiss almost made her weak at the knees.
Chen Jiayan drove back to his apartment building.
Xie Baola intended to use this opportunity to stay over at Chen Jiayan’s place.
However, Xie Qian just happened to call her, which was terribly unfortunate.
Not being able to stay with this man, Xie Baola felt it was a pity.
Seeing the regret in her eyes, Chen Jiayan felt like a bucket of cold water had been poured over him.
But it also completely calmed his emotions.
He had almost been unable to resist her seduction.
She was like poison, increasingly making him fall deeper.
He almost couldn’t control that rebellious desire for her in his heart.
...
Qiao Xi had already set the date for the housewarming party.
Xie Baola arranged with Chen Jiayan to go shopping for the housewarming gift together.
Chen Jiayan was busy with work at the office.
So, Xie Baola went to Yuanyang Technology to find him.
Upon her arrival at the company, someone received her.
"Sister-in-law, please wait a moment. The boss is still busy. Once he’s free, I’ll definitely pass on your message to him!"
Xie Baola liked the title of ’sister-in-law’.
She didn’t explain.
"Thank you."
She smiled.
"Sister-in-law, you’re welcome."
Perhaps worried Xie Baola might be bored, the staff member also brought a lot of snacks to entertain her.
When Chen Jiayan returned, he saw Xie Baola eating snacks in his office.
Chen Jiayan was speechless.
Seeing her, Chen Jiyan couldn’t help but think of that night.
If it hadn’t been for the call from Xie Qian, things might have gone too far between them...
"How long have you been here?"
Chen Jiayan, with an expressionless face, pursed his lips slightly and asked in a soft voice.
Xie Baola smiled, "Not too long. Have you finished your work?"
"Yeah."
"Then let’s go."
Chen Jiayan left the office with Xie Baola.
The office staff saw them leaving together, their faces displaying ambiguous smiles.
"Is the boss finally going to be single no more?"
"I think so."
"Sister-in-law is really pretty, like a star. The boss is truly lucky."
"The boss is handsome too. They are a perfect match. I wonder when we can celebrate their wedding?"
A female voice sounded, her tone somewhat sour, "Aren’t you guys thinking too far ahead? There’s not even a hint of that happening yet."
"Oh, everyone knows you have a crush on the boss. This is the first time he hasn’t denied a woman’s presence beside him. They might not have anything now, but there’s definitely something ambiguous going on. You don’t stand a chance!"
"..."
Xie Baola hadn’t driven her own car but had taken a taxi instead.
She got into Chen Jiayan’s car.
"I’ve already decided what to buy for Xixi, what about you?"
Chen Jiayan started the car and drove away from the company.
"Yeah."
"What are you getting?"
"A set of tea set."
"I know a place, let’s go take a look there."
"Where?"
Xie Baola gave the address.
Chen Jiayan headed to the place Xie Baola had mentioned.
The two arrived at a private vineyard.
Chen Jiayan selected a delicate set of tea set here.
Meanwhile, Xie Baola bought a bottle of red wine and a set of exquisite wine glasses, which looked quite luxurious.
Chen Jiayan pursed his lips, "Xixi doesn’t handle alcohol well."
"I know."
Xie Baola instructed the clerk to pack the wine and glasses, then told Chen Jiayan, "Not being able to drink well doesn’t mean you can’t drink."
"Moving into a new home, Boss Shen will definitely be living with her. The two of them drinking red wine and watching movies at night, it sounds like a wonderful life."
Of course, she also fantasized about living such a life with Chen Jiayan.
Chen Jiayan was speechless.
Xie Baola bought another bottle of red wine and paid for it together with Chen Jiayan before leaving the vineyard.
Once in the car, Xie Baola glanced at the time, "It’s getting late."
Chen Jiayan took over her remark, "I’ll take you home."
Home, home...
Xie Baola looked melancholic, "I’m not a high school student or a college student anymore, and neither are you. Why do you always talk about going home?"
Chen Jiayan glanced at her lightly, "Then what?"
"Since we are adults, we should find something to do!"
Find something to do? 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞
Xie Baola smiled, "The snacks I left at your place last time haven’t been touched, right? I want to go eat them, otherwise, it would be a waste if they go moldy."
Wasn’t this just an excuse to go to his place?
"Drive faster!"
Xie Baola urged him.
Chen Jiayan could only start the car.
He had reason to suspect that Xie Baola had not driven her own car with the purpose of going to his house.
Xie Baola was excited, "Do you still have groceries at home? Should we go to the mall to buy some?"
"I thought we were going to my place for snacks?"
"Eating snacks still means you need to eat meals. Does eating snacks mean we don’t need meals?"
Chen Jiayan was speechless.
